Little rascals! 😂😂😂

And the National Museum of Tiles was excellent too - as were its pastel de natas. Lisbon.

Spent an excellent hour and a half in Lisbon’s slightly surreal codfish museum. Cod, potato and garlic stew for tea!

All this week in Farming Today, LAMBS!! Spotted this lot today at Gibraltar Farm near Silverdale. + in tmw’s prog, why isn’t more food for councils, hospitals & schools sourced from local farmers? & a crackdown on rural crime. Bonus pics from Jenny Brown’s Point, cracking day!

In tmw’s Farming Today we’re outside the Senedd with Steffan Messenger & thousands of discontented Welsh farmers; protests about a huge battery farm on a greenfield site; + I’m wading about in a Lancashire beck with Ribble Rivers Trust to see NFM in action. Love a leaky dam!

If you know someone age 11-18 who wants to report on a story or issue which is important to them BBC wants to know it!
